Thru the Badger Hole (#1)
Desolation and grief can leave you floating, unable to find a new shape to your existence. Who knew that it was possible to be shocked out of the morass of sorrow by a well-timed push?!
Madrik was reeling from the loss of his family and unable to find his way into the new reality. Then something happened that sent him further than he ever thought to travel. A new life, in a new dimension! This is a place where problems are solved, and life is continually changing. Come in, put your feet up, and join the crew that Madrik is collecting in this shared universe.
Grand Opening (#2) with Nathan Howe, Stacey Nelson and Ryland Thorn
Chaos and confusion. The tidal wave of tension before release.
The Badger Hole Bar is having its Grand Opening. Madrik and his new team have been frantic. Trying to get everything ready in time is hard enough, but there are problems.
Of course, it might help if the BHB would stop rearranging the architecture, or no new emergencies came up. Since that would be an impossible situation, they will just have to do what they can and leave the rest to fate, luck, or whatever.
That just leaves one main worry… What if no one comes?
The Gift of Fashion (#4) with Kris Endicott
Even in the Badger Hold Bar, the gift of fashion is more than a shallow expression of regard.
“How you feel about your place in the world and who you are is picked up immediately by others. Comfort in your clothing presents the persona that is important to you!” so said the Clothier to her newest client.
Moving at her usual whirlwind pace, Genevieve is about to perform an Earth-shaking makeover!
Will the new client survive? Or become a victim of fashion?
Remembrance Wall (#5) with Summer Donnelly, Kris Endicott, B B Kern and Freddie Kim
Life is messy. We take the information that we have at the moment, and we make decisions. Sometimes that choice results in loss and regret.
Madrik and his crew are working on getting the BHB operational. Unfortunately, the day before the Grand Opening, the building with a mind of its own decides to add a new room. Brick walls and floors, smooth stones set in the walls. No one seems to have a clue what’s going on.
Then people start wandering in. Some in sorrow, some in a celebration of life, they each want to leave something at the Remembrance Wall.
Because who else can you trust to hold your treasured memories?
To Spin a Thread (#7)
It is relaxation time at the Badger Hole Bar! The usual crowd is rolling in, and Madrik and his crew look forward to a night of convivial entertainment. When, for the first time that anyone can remember, all three of the doors to the BHB open simultaneously, the BHB’s Anchor knows that something weird will happen. However, nothing could have prepared him for what is going down!
If it were a comedian’s joke, it would start something like this… “A soccer grandma, an ice maiden, and a cougar walked into a bar….”
All is not fun and games when the tradition of In Memorium reminds everyone of the importance of acknowledging those that have sacrificed for us, paved the way, and woven intense memories of comfort and love into the fabric of our being.
